Seriously Simple Stats <= 1.6.0 is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability

The Seriously Simple Stats plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting due to the use of add_query_arg without appropriate escaping on the URL in all versions up to, and including, 1.6.0. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link.

CVSS

Score:7.1

Severity:High

Version: 1.6.0

There is a patch available in v1.7.0 and we strongly recommend you update to this version as soon as possible.
